How much do you know about car maintenance in autumn? It’s sunny today and I drove my car out for the first insurance. For the first insurance for a new car, it is generally a simple replacement of the oil and filter, and then a comprehensive inspection will be carried out on the vehicle. Normally, there are no other items that need to be replaced. Generally, the first insurance for a new car takes half a year or 5000 kilometers to be maintained.
The replacement cycle of new car oil needs to be based on the factory date. Moreover, although new cars now will be run-in advance, the engine will still have metal fragments that have not been completely ground clean falling at the beginning of use, which will affect the service life of the engine oil. Therefore, no matter what type of oil is added when the new car leaves the factory, it is recommended that the owner do maintenance within half a year or 5000 kilometers, whichever comes first, which will be more beneficial to the vehicle.
The first insurance is generally given for free, and the owner only needs to go to the 4S shop where the car is purchased for car maintenance. Before departure, car owners need to bring their own driving license and maintenance manual. The main thing is to replace the oil filter, followed by some free inspection items, such as important:
1. Tire pressure inspection. If the tire pressure of the new car that has just been lifted is not checked, the tire pressure is generally non-standard.
2. Check the light to see if there are any lights that are not working.
3. Chassis inspection mainly checks whether the chassis has bumps and deformations and whether there are leaking parts.
4. Inspect the liquid level of each oil to check whether the oil is missing or leaking.
5. The computer detects the data flow to see if the working data of each sensor is normal.
Therefore, it is recommended that car owners read the vehicle manual before maintaining it. The manual provides instructions on what kind of maintenance to be carried out after the car has traveled for many kilometers.
It is necessary to distinguish between small maintenance and large maintenance. The maintenance of a car can be divided into small maintenance and large maintenance. Small maintenance generally refers to the regular maintenance items that the car has not traveled for a long time. To ensure the performance of the vehicle, it mainly includes replacing oil and oil filters. and conducting routine inspections.
Car engines need lubrication, and oil plays the role of lubrication, cleaning, sealing, and cooling. However, as the car drives, the base oil and additives in the oil will deteriorate and fail. Therefore, in order to protect the engine, it is necessary to change regularly. Oil. In addition to minor maintenance items, major maintenance also requires replacing the air filter, oil filter, gasoline filter and spark plug.
In addition, key components such as brake fluid, antifreeze, transmission oil, and timing belts must be replaced in major maintenance projects.
Both large and small maintenance are periodic. Generally, vehicles are explained in the user manual. If some vehicles require minor maintenance every 5000 kilometers and major maintenance every 20000 kilometers, brake fluid and antifreeze are replaced every 80000 kilometers.
I used the first insurance for almost 3 hours. I took the children to play in the lounge area and ate the working meal provided by the 4S shop. Overall, it was a smooth day.
